    Cool The I'm going out flying thread 2017

    Test flight after rebuilding the servos was a success. Got 2 solid flights yesterday before deciding it was time to pack it up to keep it nice for the Spats Invitational in 3 weeks :) Feels much crisper now, though I forgot to match the elevator servos to each other with the programmer :oblong:

    Decided that it was time to rebuild the 7955's in my Yak, they have lots of play in them from flying the airplane aggressively every flight. After a small SNAFU I put new cases and bearings on all 6o f them and put 2 back into my stabs last night. Everything was testing fine until I went to...

    I don't think I'm really at liberty to divulge the whole situation but Joe had his hands completely full aside from ZDZ, which is partly why he passed ZDZ on.

    Successful re-maiden of the Yak, just need to do a couple of mild flights on her when I get to Washington on Wednesday and it'll be ready to throw down. Have 3 flights on her now of just boring circles in the sky- Engine is all tuned up and running great, more power every flight.

    GSN GIVE-A-WAY Hangar 9 35% Extra 300X Assembly

    Hmm your 120 is drinking gas... Mine new 120 that have yet to set the needles on doesn't use that much fuel, I can get about 8-10 minutes of hard 3D and manage to use only slightly more than half a tank. Both my 120's are like that.

    Was an overall great weekend this weekend. Got my Edge all dial'd in as good as it's gonna get, now it'll be parked until TriCities at the end of the month :) Also it was National Model Aviation Day on Saturday so of course my club held a fun fly event to raise money for a local charity.
